#SocialMedia has been really depressing for a long time now. Every day, there’s bad #news everywhere, #wars, #naturaldisasters, people being hurt or killed. #Politicians seem more selfish and less helpful than ever. They often argue instead of solving #problems.

Sometimes, it even feels like no one cares about #human lives anymore. All of this can make people feel hopeless or angry. It’s hard to #staypositive when you see so much #pain and #injustice every single day! 🫤
